How to play

An AI drew the picture using five secret words.
Tap the words you think were used to generate the image. Green means yes, red means no.
Find all five in fewer guesses than The Bot took, and you win!

Tips

The five words were used in the prompt that made the image, so start with what you can actually see in it.
Themes can be literal or figurative. The title is revealed when you finish.
The Bot guessed from the same pool of words you have. Its guesses show at the end, in order.
